ExGlo Foundation Supports Livelihood Projects

A nation who does not invest in their young ones isn’t worth dying for they say; in lieu with this adage, ExGlo Foundation, a non-governmental organization in Ghana has been at the forefront of championing charity initiatives as well as educative and well-meaning programmes to help not only the young ones but people in need and support, across various spheres.
ExGlo Foundation recently undertook 2 initiatives worth highlighting. The first one done in Tamale, capital of the Northern Region of Ghana saw Senior High School Girls undergoing training that will be able to equip them for business start-ups after school.
This year, the foundation selected 2 regions and identified two beneficiaries for its activities. The Northern Region and the Central Region were selected with specific reference to the Tamale Girls Senior High School in the North and the Srafa community in the Central region. The objective of the foundation this year was to engage these beneficiaries in skill development training and also to offer educational assistance to the Srafa D/A Basic school.
The rationale behind the skill development training was based on the needs assessment carried out before the training. We discovered that, with regards to the Tamale Girls, most of the students were more likely to venture into entrepreneurship to make a living for themselves after school. But there are little to no skill acquisition avenues in the school and the few existing ones are expensive and thus unaffordable hence they are not able to pursue their entrepreneurial aspirations when they leave school. This is a major problem in our target regions and most of the students involved in this end up becoming delinquent and living reckless lives. Most of the girls become pregnant after a few months of coming out of school with little or no financial support for themselves and their kids.
For the Srafa Community, they discovered that the women in the community are mostly engaged in farming which serves as their only source of income for themselves and their families. Since farming is a seasonal occupation, these women become financially handicapped when it is not yet the farming season. Most of the women in this community are also housewives who have no particular skill to support their families financially aside farming.
As part of their mission as a Foundation, they decided to equip these girls and women with various skills that can help them attain some level of financial freedom.
Skill Development TrainingaAt Tamale Girls Senior High School:
On the 12th of November, 2022 the ExGlo foundation visited the Tamale Girls Senior High School to train them in liquid soap and bead making. As stated early on, the aim was to equip them with these skills to prevent them from being idle and delinquent after school and also acquire entrepreneurial skills to help them in the future.
Skill Development Training at Srafa Community and Donation Of Essential Items to Srafa D/A Basic School
On the 18th of November, 2022 the ExGlo foundation visited the people of Srafa in the Central region. The visitation was in 2 folds. The first half of the program was to donate some essential items the school needs to facilitate learning and some menstrual hygiene items the female students requested for during the needs assessment conducted. Items donated to the school included marker-boards, sanitary pads, towels, soaps, African print cloths (to cover themselves with it in the washroom when changing), dozens of panties and a cupboard where all these menstrual hygiene items can be kept. ExGlo foundation also repaired the spoilt hand wash basin in the washrooms for them and fixed the marker-boards as well.
The second phase involved the entire community, but mostly the women. The aim was to engage them in making shampoo, liquid soap and pastries, which was very successful. The women were equipped with these skills to help them generate extra income to support themselves and their families.
Source of Funding for This Year’s Projects:
The key sponsors and collaborators for this year’s activities are the management of St John’s Hospital and Fertility Centre, Tantra Hill Roundabout, Accra as part of their Corporate Social Responsibility and Best Western Premier, Accra Airport Hotel. Other contributors included Mr Michael Sandow Ali (the chairman of the board), Abeiku Aggrey Santana, Prof. Joshua Y. Abor, Prof. Mrs. Vera Fiador and other family and friends. We are grateful to all our patrons, sponsors and contributors for helping us teach these disadvantaged community members how to fish instead of giving them only fish. God continue to bless their kind hearts.
Special Appreciation:
The foundation would like to thank our hardworking volunteers who helped to make these projects successful. The team was led by Ms Nancy Abena Manko, the Project Manager for the Foundation with oversight provided by the Executive Director, Dr. Patience Aseweh Abor.
Our volunteers for this year’s projects were;

Ms. Rahama Issahaku
Ms. Jennifer Yaa Andorful Wilson

Mr. Kwesi Ohene-Djan
Mr. Samuel Quansah
Mr. Moses Quarshie
Ms. Alberta Koffuah
The ExGlo foundation initially targeted the Central, North, Upper East and The Upper West Regions for skill development training but due to financial constraints, we were able to focus on just 2 Regions. They are appealing to the general public, other NGOs, organizational bodies et al to help our cause so we can reach out to more beneficiaries. Thank you.

“Prove To Me If The Prostitutes Are Staying In My Apartment” – Bishop Daniel Obinim Dares Shatana

These couple of weeks have seen musician Shatana, go back and forth with leader of International God’s Way Church, Bishop Daniel Obinim over a video that surfaced around the same time.
The video which was taken by Shatana saw some alleged number of prostitutes plying their trade in front of Bishop’s church. To add salt to injury, these alleged prostitutes purported that they lived in one of Obinim’s apartment s which were a few blocks from the church’s premises.
They also claimed, they had to pay 2,000cedis to foot the rent fee of the room. Shatana explained this situation in an interview on Kingdom FM last week.
Bishop Obinim who saw this as demeaning has rebutted the allegations fiercely with explanations. At a church sermon last week in his church, he expressed that the stories are all untrue and cooked. He further dared Shatana to provide evidence if she thinks her story is true.
This is the third time Angel Obinim has responded to the story. Well, Shatana is yet to counter what Bishop has said.

“People Even Have Sex On Atwea Mountains”, Angel Obinim Replies Shatana

The internet has been full of banters these couple of weeks. One which is fast gaining roots is that of artiste, Shatana and Bishop Obinim’s. It has sparked serious concerns outrages on the information super highway.
It has been a week when Shatana alleged that there has been a couple of sex workers plying their trade in front of the House of the Lord, where Bishop Angel Obinim sheperds. When Shatana decided to drive them away from the premises because it is blasphemous, she was met with a mouth gaping revelation. That Bishop Obinim owned the apartments that housed them (prostitutes), and they had to pay 2000cedis every month or face eviction.
This got to Shatana so much that she released the video and called the Ghanaian christiandom to be up and doing. The video then sparked heavy appeal and reaction.
Bishop Obinim who saw the need to explain the situation because it tarnished his image has responded to the claims made by Shatana. He said indeed he owned the apartments and he has rented it out to girls, some of which are Nigerians, Kenyans, Ghanaians, etc
Bishop Obinim further said although he owned the apartments, he has not given any tenant the power to use it as a brothel. Nonetheless, he explained that he could not control a tenant who decides to use her body for material gains. He also expressed that he has gone to the house to preach to them and pray on countless occasions but to no avail. He further said, people have been desecrating business areas, official and public places, and many more since time immemorial. He gave an example of how once he saw a pastor and his singer having intercourse on Atwea Mountain’s Prayer Camp. Lastly, he stated that the said apartments of his was not near the church premises.
Shatana is yet to rebut what Bishop Angel Obinim has said.
Watch the video of what Obinim said and the interview of Shatana explaining how she saw the place.

His Excellency Felix Hator, The Selfless Ghanaian Consul Who Helped Team Wanderlust In Mauritania, en route London

The entire nation became extremely gleeful when a Team of Ghanaian citizens took a daring task to travel by road from Accra to London. The 10,000 kilometres’ journey which took them at 13 days through various countries saw them plying numerous countries from Africa through Europe and finally to their final destination, London.
This was not just a dotingly remarkable achievement but also, another historic feat since the news broke out. It took social media platforms by frenzy midway through their journey when the Team finally announced via their social media platforms that they’d embarked on such this ‘exceptional’ trip.
Just like any other travel would have it, it didn’t come easy for these Team of Ghanaians on their trip. No, there was no disaster! But as protocols would demand, they got into some few ‘glitches’, especially when they got to Mauritania. There in Mauritania, a very patriotic diplomat, His Excellency Felix Hator, came through for them.
His Excellency Felix Hator, Ghana’s Consul to Mauritania showed the Team tremendous hospitality when the Team entered into the country (Mauritania). Not only did he come to their ‘rescue’ but he showed extreme care and support for Team Wanderlust. Furthermore, he added a letter of support from his outfit to the high Office of Mauritania that allowed his fellow Ghanaian Citizens to use Nouakchott as a route to continue their journey into Europe and finally into UK.
H.E Felix Hator hosted and fêted Team Wanderlust and made them feel comfortable while showing them some of the amazing projects he’s on with other fellow Ghanaian citizens who are based there and working with him. This is a true mark of a patriotic statesman we should emulate and replicate for our fellow Ghanaian men and women everywhere in the world.
H.E Felix Hator, though would not want to highlight this himself for ‘media clout’ it is very key to celebrate him for his kind gesture to Team Wanderlust; he led them through Nouakchott with a full drive till they reached the Moroccan Border and finally journeyed on to their final destination.
Below is a video snippet of Team Wanderlust celebrating HE Felix Hator for the support.
